Author Topic: How Many Put Up With Long Ads On Free YouTube. Some Longer Then The Videos  (Read 1726 times)


Lately since YouTube put out their payed service a ton of channels (but not all) on YouTube free service can have ads longer then the videos themselves. I don't skip them because I fear that some people trigger the "skip ads" button to download hidden undetectable malware to get more people to watch the ads and not press the skip button. that how I feel

Some of the YouTube ads are unbearable and can happen before most videos and again in just 2 minutes into a video sometimes the free YouTube app says there only going to be 2,  2 minute ads for the videos and it turns in to 4, 2 minute ad videos and sometimes one ad will last 2 to 3 minutes. and sometimes the ads will last 1-2 hours.

another question I will ask, does anyone on here use the paid YouTube app that cost money to use?

It's safe to skip the ads  ;)

I usually let the ads play.  I mostly watch YouTubers that I want to support and letting the ads run benefits them. 

If I'm watching a video from someone I haven't heard of yet, I often will skip the ad.  If the ad is longer than the content, I will usually skip it.


i use adblock so i dont get ads.
however i tend to use youtube on my ps4 a lot more than on pc so i do get ads there. one time i got an entire episode of some online show as an "ad" that lasted 1 hour and 40 minutes. even took a pic of that absurdity, but i cant find the folder. need to, theres a lot of pics in it i want to see again.

You can't get malware skipping a youtube ad, but if you have an issue with them on PC, just get adblock.  It's free and you'll never have ads again.

how do people enjoy youtube with adds

I have never seen any ads since add blocker. and if you want to watch something on some other site just download it to bypass ads
